2013 Space Oddity WC580

NPN Weekly Challenge #580:

Nature transcends our small planet “Earth”, the English name for it.

If string theory is true, and there is a multiverse, and if that multiverse is the Ultimate Multiverse in which all possibilities are realized in some parallel universe, could there be a solar system where the sun is a navel orange and the planets heirloom tomatoes??

Realizing this is all hypothetical, I myself have no definite opinion one way or the other…I’m just sayin’… :confused:

Pentax K-5, Tamron 17-50mm at 42.5mm, ISO 400, 1/180s, indirect strobe illumination. 10 image stack processed through Zerene with PMax result.

Very 'out of this world' John.. And you say 'tomato', I say 'tomahto' or I like your potato pic too :biggrin:
If you can dream or think it? Then your 'Ultimate Multiverse" is possible in theory. Proving it's another matter of course.
My hat's off to your creativity, very fruity of you.. Just sayin':wink:

John, this is what I call thinking beyond our world! Great idea, well executed. Thanks for sharing.

Another very unique entry from you, John! :smile: Great comp of this alternate universe with the "sun" in the foreground nice and large, and the "planets" in varying sizes and colors, curving left to right. The orange does look like it has a sunflare-like texture to it. There is some "space debris" floating around that you may wish to clone out if you plan to market this universe shot. :biggrin:
